    <Race Name="Humans" Spelling="Hum 'an" Species="Humanoid" Picture="/Graphics/Species/Humans.png">
      <History>
        At the beginning of the 21st century the first pioneers boarded generation and sleeper ships to start a journey to other stellar systems. Only three of two dozen of the ships eventually reached habitable systems. The descendants of the populations of these three ships are the ancestors to three of the current humanoid races.
        Back on earth, a devastating catastrophe known at the Hammer of Eden made most of the planet uninhabitable. Only through a hibernation project called Winter Sleep did a portion of humanity manage to survive. The devastation was so extensive that it took 2500 years for the earth's ecosystem to recover sufficiently to support human life once again.
        Only 849 million out of 10 bil. people survived the Hammer of Eden event, and only 264 million of them survived their hibernation.
        Five hundred years later the reconstruction efforts of the survivors has made a new expansion into space possible again.
        Mankind now enters the 53th century and year 5273 should be a glorious and great year in the history of mankind.

    <Race Name="Teaun" Spelling="Ti ung" Species="Humanoid" Picture="/Graphics/Species/Teaun.png">
      <History>
        The Teaun are the descendants of the people from the last generation ship. This ship arrived after a journey of 400 years at a double star system, with two habitable worlds. The Teaun descend from a mix of Arabian and Asian spacefarers. The Theaun have become commuters between the two worlds, because only one world has good conditions at a time. Te, the inner world, is optimal when the smaller star is hiding behind the big main star. Aun, the outer world, is only habitable when the satellite star is in front of the main star. Every four years, the Teauns must settle down on the other world. After 3000 Years of evolution, they can be divided into three tribes:
        Tese - The long lasting inhabitants of Te, who were tired of the nomads life.
        Auin - The long lasting inhabitants of Aun. They gave up the nomads life as well.
        Teaun - The nomads, who form the biggest part of the population.
        All Teaun tribes are in an everlasting turf war with the others.

    <Race Name="V*leran" Spelling="Wi lir an" Species="Humanoid" Picture="/Graphics/Species/Vleran.png">
      <History>
        The V*leran are the descendants of one of the last remaining sleeper ships,
        which reached a habitable system after a journey of 600 years.
        This is a system with six planets. Only one of the planets, a barren desert world,
        which however had many minerals, had an urban civilization.
        This planet was the goal of the ship, which after the landing freed
        its passengers from their stasis.
        The first contact between the newcomers and the native Eran was
        not particularly peaceful.
        Only after 200 years the two parties arrived at a state of peace with one another.
        The V*leran are the final product of the mixture of the two species,
        the creativity of humans paired with the photographic memory of the Eran.

    <Race Name="Ro'in" Spelling="Ro ing"  Species="Humanoid" Picture="/Graphics/Species/Roin.png">
      <History>
        The Ro'in are descendants of the ship that reached the first habitable world by accident. On it's journey it encountered a rare natural phenomenon known as a wormhole.
        This wormhole catapulted them into a region of space so densely packed with stars that even chemical engines could reach a number of targets.
        The ship exited the wormhole close to a yellowish white star orbited by 4 different worlds. None of these was habitable, but an aquatic moon in the orbit of a gas giant was.
        This became the Ro'in home world. After only 300 years the first groups were already leaving to explore the nearby stars.
        After 2000 tears of space travel and settling, the Ro'in had established themselves on dozens of the stars in the local cluster.
        This was the golden age of the Ro'in. But the same phenomenon that had brought them here, also brought them their downfall. A fragment of a neutron came too close to the entrance of the wormhole and was sucked through. Appearing just 20 million km from their home world, this fragment was swallowed by the local star and caused a subtly imbalance. This all happened without the Ro'in noticing, until their star began to go supernova.
        In the long run only one of the dozens of colonies survived the disaster. Stranded on a lone forest world with little technology it took a 600 year struggle before once again the Ro'in would push out into space again.
        Their drastically changed environment has also changed these Ro'in in many ways.

    <Race Name="Eris" Spelling="Eer izz" Species="Cybernetic" Picture="/Graphics/Species/Eris.png">
      <History>
        These cybernetics developed from an insectoid race that looked to technological improvement of their own imperfect bodies for their welfare.
        It increased the swarm consciousness that the Eris already had tenfold. From it a sort of cult developed, obsessed with improving everything it deemed to be imperfect.
        They started building a ring world, but that was destroyed when an AI went rogue. After this disaster the Eris went into hibernation which has lasted a thousand yeas. Now they are slowly awakening on their stars again.

    <Race Name="Kla" Spelling="Kla" Species="Cybernetic" Picture="/Graphics/Species/Kla.png">
      <History>
        The Kla are an anomaly because they did not convert themselves to cybernetics. Originally the Kla were a saurian race. Still in the tribal stage of development when a von Neumann probe crashed on their planet. A large art of it's programming was lost, but the programs for self improvement and looking for good materials stayed active.
        Being a curious race by nature the Kla couldn't help but investigate the crash site closer. As the most curious of the Kla approached the probe, it used nanites to transform the creature before the eyes of the other Kla. These turned and ran, but the transformed Kla received insights that none of the Kla ever had before. It was the first cybernetic Kla and the only one the probe could create before it's systems finally died.
        When the Kla returned to its tribe and reported about the gift of knowledge, all wanted to receive the same. The site of the probe was turned into a holy site from that day on.
        The first cybernetic Kla could not control the nanites in its body and in the course of time transformed all the Kla of its tribe. One hundred years later the last of the Kla was no longer pure biological, but it took a lot longer before they were able to take to the stars.

      <History>
        The Necro developed from an avian species which wanted to defeat death. The view themselves as perfect because they attained practically eternal life with their cybernetic implants. They hate the imperfect which is one of the reasons their home world now resembled one giant machine.
        When they came to the realization that their home world was perfect, they ventured into space.

    <Race Name="Rin" Spelling="Ar Inn" Species="Saurian" Picture="/Graphics/Species/Rin.png">
      <History>
        The society of the saurian Rin is based on their epic history of the long exodus. A history detailing the flight of their ancestors from their home planet, which stood on the brink of destruction. To escape the destruction they converted their home world into a spaceship and began a long search for a suitable sun. After many thousands of months they reached a suitable system and brought their world into an optimal orbit.
        That's why the Rin are so good at research. According to the epic, their ancestors did not rest until they had done enough research to solve their problem.
        The reconstruction of ther civilization after the end of their exodus until today has taken 4000 years.

        The O'erea did not posses advanced technology until a hundred years ago. The constant wars that their clan-based society waged withheld them from making sufficient progress. But when a spaceship crashed into their home world, one of the clans was able to seize the technology and put it to use. They forced the rest of the clans into a common council and began the propagation of technology.
        Now, 100 years later they are starting to advance into the universe.

        The Toil'ean are the smallest known intelligent species. Hardly larger than a wolf, they have reached the top of the intelligent species.
        They achieved in 500 years that which other races has taken thousands of years. Due to an accidental genetic mutation they are able to pass along their gathered knowledge to their offspring, thus quickly expanding the collective knowledge from generation to generation.
        They excel in gathering and putting to use new knowledge. They made the best of their desert covered world, which circles around a red dwarf.

        The Taian originally developed in a nebula which showed traces of water. In an adjacent solar system lived an ichtosian civilization which had recently developed space flight. They build a city ship and sent it into the nebula for investigation. This investigation brought the Taian in contact with this ichtosian race. They quicly took over their bodies and adapted them to their needs. Then they set course for the ichtosian home world.
        They recognized the danger the returning ship posed, but there was nothing they could do against it. Before they could destroy it the ship entered the atmosphere and rained down the Taian contaminated water. The Taian quickly took over their new world.
